Dr. Jennifer Bird Talks to Us About Marriage in the Bible

[@seasidescott]

Thanks for this. I grow weary of acquaintances "finding Jesus" later in life and becoming Christian zealots quoting verses out of context to justify their positions. They didn't read the whole sections for context (or the whole Bible) and didn't grow up around religious people to gain inoculation to such behavior and its nearly inevitable hypocrisy. Y'all walk the fence pretty well, neither endorsing or dismissing people's faith.

Thank you - it's a hard line to walk sometimes, but we want to honor everyone's path even if it's different than our own.

[@seasidescott]

@@WhatIfProjectPodcast - I honor all who have the courage to be on the path, on their own journey no matter where it leads.

It would be so illuminating if you would consider the works of Israel Anderson who makes a very interesting and compelling argument for Yahweh=Satan. His video 2 gardens and a snake is fascinating. Maybe reach out and invite him on to your channel to discuss his revelations. He very much aligns with a lot of what you both say here

Could Eunuchs be intersex?

[@seasidescott]

"Were intersex people sometimes regarded as eunuchs?" is the question I think. Probably if that were an option in their area, which would only be in a large city where eunuchs served a purpose, and it would mean selling the child off to someone who marketed in young eunuchs. There are stories of young eunuchs late into the middle ages in Europe such as singers. I'm guessing that the majority of people born intersex met an unfortunate fate upon birth that was and is almost never spoken about. That's similar to how it was known but not discussed that the majority of "sudden infant death syndrome" was a mother permanently quieting a child. The intersex child or person would also have to have some abilities to be useful as a eunuch such as being a graceful servant or warrior type able to guard someone's women, etc. Just not having identifiable genitalia wouldn't be sufficient.

The Chief Eunuch was Joseph (Sagittarius). He rode in the chariot behind Pharaoh ( Scorpio). Joseph was the chief of Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. You will find this fabulous five in Revelation 9.5. The none production season of the year/world/generation is simply winter. This "five" is also the five sons of Shem who is the Latin Pluto and Greek Hades. You should read the Egyptian tale of the two brothers, Anpu and Bata.
